So I am looking at Firefox and Thunderbird 2.0. Should I install them? Or is Redhat correct that there is nothing improved here and wait for 3.0? (well I have not even had a chance to look at Thunderbird 2.0, that is new)?

Actually, Firefox 2.x irritates the crap out of me with the newer search option. Instead of /foo to search a page for foo and having the option to find it again, you now have to hit ctrl+f, windows style for searching. the /foo still works, but times out quickly and doesn't give you the option to move to the next found location.

I'd say sit tight for a while on the RH version unless there's a feature/plugin you REALLY need/want.
